8-Star in Arena

In an arena fight last week, I encountered an 8-Star R2 champ in the opponent's team. I didn't think much of it then, but I have never seen it again. It had a grey border (like how the 7-stars have purple).

Was it a hacker, a system account, or something else? I am curious if anyone else encountered something similar. I wish I had taken a screenshot.

That was not an 8*, the grey border are the Deathless champs. There are no 8* champs…yet

Pics or didn't happen. Clickbait isn't welcome here.

Wish you had taken a screenshot as well. Cause from others reading they may think you're making it up or others might start wondering was this a hack or leak of things to come. I'm hoping at this point people are gracious to you and don't take a stroll down speculation lane, much less going down the rabbit hole chasing the white rabbit.

You mean a 7* deathless champ

A 7* deathless champ seems like the most possible answer. I might have seen a different background colour and miscounted the stars. The PI was around 30k. If a 8R2 did exist, I guess the PI would be much higher.

Most likely a deathless champ you were looking at, there are no 8*s in the game

Specs off, counting off… that '8-star' was just a 7-star Deathless champ

You could go into BGs and look for the previous match up. Click the box that shows your last win/loss and it'll give you the last 10 or 20 matches.

How does that help when he said it allegedly occured in an arena match???

You're right. I thought it was BGs by the time I read all the comments.
